Or if they had really properly developed those characters in the first place.

The writing on this show is really poor. My biggest issue is that a single character will basically change week to week depending upon what is needed to progress that particular episode. The only characters that have consistently felt "real" are Daryl and Carol.

But they get it right about every 3-4 episodes, which is why I've stuck with this show for so long. It's as frustrating as LOST was though. It just feels like a lot of squandered potential.
